Books:   


Any Dr. Seuss book will work for this storytime, but here are some that are especially fun or that kids may not have heard before:

 

Mr. Brown Can Moo! Can You?

Gerald McBoing Boing

Daisy Head Maisy

Ten Apples Up on Top

Yertle the Turtle (InYertle the Turtle and Other Stories)

Too Many Daves (In The Sneetches and Other Stories)

What Was I Scared Of (In The Sneetches and Other Stories)

Hop on Pop  

The Foot Book

Green Eggs and Ham

 

 

Activities: 


Alligator Pie

Alligator, alligator

Alligator pie.                          (open and close hands like an alligator's mouth)

If I don't get some,

I think I'm gonna cry.                         (rub fists near eyes)

You can take away the grass,             (wiggle fingers like grass blowing)

Take away the sky,                 (hands over head)

But don't take away                (do alligator's mouth again)

My Alligator pie.

 

Alligator alligator, 

Alligator stew,

If I don't get some,

I don't know what I'll do.

You can take away my furry hat,

Take away my shoe,

But don't take away

My alligator stew!

 

Alligator alligator, 

Alligator soup,

If I don't get some, I think I'm gonna droop.

You can take away my hockey stick,

Take away my hoop,

But don't take away

My alligator soup!

 

 

To go with Hop on Pop:

D-A-D-D-Y

(Tune: B-I-N-G-O)

There is a man who cares for me, and daddy is his name-o.

D-a-d-d-y,

D-a-d-d-y,

D-a-d-d-y,

And daddy is his name-o.

 

He ties my shoes and never shouts, because he knows what love’s about.

D-a-d-d-y,

D-a-d-d-y,

D-a-d-d-y,

And daddy is his name-o.

 

Rhymes to go with Ten Apples Up On Top

Apples  

Apples, apples,

One, two, three,

Apples for you,

Apples for me.

 

Apples big,

Apples small,

Apple trees tiny,

Apple trees tall.

 

Apples sour,

Apples sweet,

Apples, apples

Are nice to eat.

 

Five Red Apples

Five red apples hanging in a tree

The juiciest apples you ever did see.

The wind came by and gave an angry frown

And one little apple came tumbling down

Four red apples, hanging in a tree, etc.

 

 

 

Crafts: 


Yertle the Turtle 

Make a turtle by stapling, lacing, or glueing two paper plates together. Use construction paper for head and feet. Glue wiggly eyes on head.

 

Apple Necklace

Cut lengths of yarn to use as the necklace. Cut straws into pieces and cut apples using NCLS Accucuts - "Apple #2" for small apples, or "Apple #1" for larger ones. Punch holes in the top of the apples. Let kids string the straws and apples onto the yarn.

 

Striped Hat

Cut hats from sturdy paper using NCLS Accucut "Hat Wrap Around Striped". Let kids color and decorate their hat.
